Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place beets on a sheet of parchment-lined foil; drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Fold edges to form a packet. Place on a baking sheet, and roast beets until tender, about 1 hour. Unwrap; let cool slightly, then peel. Cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Bring onion, vinegar, water, and sugar to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in beets, apples, and mustard.
- Divide among 3 pint-size sterilized glass jars using a slotted spoon, leaving 1/4-inch headspace at tops. Wipe rims and then close with screw bands and lids.
- Submerge jars, covering with water by 2 inches, upright on a wire rack in a large pot of hot water; bring to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes (or longer, depending on altitude). Remove jars from pot using tongs, and transfer to a layer of clean towels to cool. Once cool, check for a slight indentation in lids, which indicates a vacuum seal. Refrigerate all canned products after opening.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Tightly wrap beets in a double layer of foil and roast on a baking sheet in middle of oven until very tender, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. Cool in foil package until warm (the steam makes beets easier to peel), about 20 minutes.
- While beets are roasting, stir together vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until sugar and salt are dissolved. Cut apples into 1/4-inch dice and add to dressing along with horseradish. Toss well.
- When beets are cool enough to handle, slip off skins and remove stems. Cut beets into 1/4-inch dice and stir into apple mixture.
- Chill relish, covered, stirring occasionally, at least 2 hours (to allow flavors to develop) and up to 3 days.
Tips:
- For a sweeter relish, use sweeter apples, such as Fuji or Gala.
- For a more tart relish, use tarter apples, such as Granny Smith or Braeburn.
- To make the relish spicier, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- For a more savory relish, add a tablespoon of Dijon mustard or horseradish.
- The relish can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
